    I have been a member and both sons are for many years
    I use to try to get the people at work to join ( they could afford the 25 or 35 dollars ) but would always say well I should but they have enough members and I hate to spend the money .... my reply was normally , really a trip to a fast food place cost that much .. and next time conversations would go the same I should but...
    I tried to explain the benefits in large numbers and having some one fighting ( well most of the time ) for gun owners ,
    sad they ( co-workers ) were making that much a hour I was always just frustrated with let someone else carry the flag [:(!]

    Life member of both the NRA and Ducks unlimted. Both were Birthday presents from my Grandfather. One was a 10th and the other a 15th.

    Although I have been disappointed in some of the decisions the NRA has made and their caving in to libtards all in all I believe they are a good organization and seem to becoming more conservative and less flexible.

    Life member since the early 80's. As said before, I don't always agree with their actions, but that goes for most organizations I have been in. They are STILL the best and loudest voice for gun owners. GOA is another one I support. There should be 10,000,000 members.

    I made an agreement with the folks I worked with.

    I would join their organization for one year, if they would join the NRA for one year. Of course, after the year I would let my membership in their organization expire. Most of them are still a member of the NRA - years later. [;)]

    The NRA supported the 1938 ban, and the slide fire stock ban, probably the 1968 ban also. They do not know what 'Shall Not Be Infringed' means. I will never support them.

    It's pretty black and white to me too. Thankfully, there is the SAF on the white side.

    ??? I totally agree that the NRA is a powerful gun rights lobby. Thing is, I'm not interested in the least in "gun rights". I'm interested in preserving the second amendment. Gun rights is an imaginary term foisted upon the weak minded as being of some import to freedom loving Americans. Any and every fudd out there supports the ludicrous and often anti-second amendment notion of gun rights. Usually, it means "you can have a gun as long as you have your government issued permission slip to exercise an enumerated right", other times it means "some guns are bad, some aren't, so people only need the good ones; ban the bad ones", and often both of these things. Sorry, won't subscribe to supporting "gun rights". Too anti-constitutional for me.

    If not for the NRA and it's members, IP 43 would be on the ballot in Oregon in November. Dead. Certain.

    As I was raising funds at various sporting and shooting events, before I asked for contributions I was asking if they were an NRA member and kept track.

    Just short of 97% of NRA members pulled out their wallets and contributed something. The highest were two guys who wrote $5000 checks.

    Less than 50% of non-NRA members did. The highest contribution was one guy who gave $100.

    maybe a long way from being what we want no give and all take back our rights
    but they are the biggest game in ton and every politician and news know about them if nothing else they are whats standing in front of our rights


    I would be a lot more proud if they ( NRA ) would fight to regain what we have lost and win rights back and stop the give a little siding with the anti gunners to feed the sharks
